Openbox:Pipemenus:Audacious control alternative

Audmenuv3.png

A menu to control Audacious - it uses audtool (builtin client for audacious). The "Show/hide main window" feature depends on wmctrl - this is needed to detect if the window is shown or not and set the item label/action accordingly. If you do not have wmctrl or have other means of getting the information, adjust code accordingly or remove the item. Most of the functions (add/remove/import/export etc.) depend on one of gtkdialog/matedialog/zenity being installed.

This menu consists of two files - the actual menu (audmenu) and the script (audctrl) that achieves most of the functionality. Both need to be executable. The script needs to be in your PATH (or you would need to specify the full path to it everywhere in the code of audmenu.

The audctrl script also provides a more extended "previous song" feature - audtool does not jump from first to last song even when repeat is on (it only allows jumping from last to first when selecting "next song").

audmenu:

# A pipe menu for openbox to control Audacious.
# Depends on wmctrl and an additional script audctrl.
# All the functionality of audctrl can be incorporated into this script (as is done with the playlist submenu),
# but this way, it can be used independently of this menu in a complementary way to audtool.
# audctrl should be in your PATH
